Sonogram at 12 Weeks

Travis and I went to our 12 week sonogram today.  It was just amazing to see how much the baby has grown since our 7 week sono.  The sonographer had to wake the baby up to get the right measurements.  Hopefully the baby's sleeping pattern is this good when he/she is born. lol.

The baby is around 6 cms, it's heartbeat is around 160 bpm and everything else looks healthy.  Right now, that's all we can ask for.

I am still feeling pretty good.  I have a new deep appreciation for pork products and hourly snack breaks. 

First Baby Blog

A friend of mine made the brilliant suggestion of starting a blog.  I started to think of all of our family & friends that live outside of the DFW area and thought this would be a great way to keep everyone involved.  Please keep in touch. We would love to hear from you!

Today, I am officially 10 weeks and 5 days along.  The due date is June 30th, 2011, which right now seems so far away.  So far, the first trimester has been good to me.  I have not had a lot of morning sickness and other than bouts of extreme hunger followed by extreme exhaustion, I've been feeling really good. 

Travis and I have had two sonograms so far.  The first one was a little too early on at 5 weeks so other than the yolk sac, not much to see.  The second sonogram was amazing!  We heard the heart beat and saw what could be either a teddy bear or a hamster.

Travis is traveling during our next sonogram but I absolutely love and trust my doctor's office so I know I'll be fine.  I think we are both really looking forward to week 12 where the baby is starting to look more like a little human.

Again, thanks so much for checking out our blog.  Keep in touch!
